The WRC awarded Leszek Zero €430 after finding that EM News Distribution Ireland Limited left a weekly responsibility allowance out of his written employment terms. The decision was dated 1 September 2021. Zero said he had been promised a €50 weekly allowance when working alone and began doing so in December 2019. The company said the allowance was payable only after probation. The WRC found the allowance was missing from his contract and that the omission caused hardship because he was deprived of the payment from December 2019 until April 2020. The WRC awarded one week’s pay, €430, for the infringement.
